Dottie shows off her bowl full of soup at the 28th Annual Empty Bowls Project, held Sunday, Nov. 2, at Dripping Springs Ranch Park. The event, which raises funds for Dripping Springs Helping Hands, surpassed last year’s total by selling more than 1,350 bowls in three hours. “It was the most successful EBP to date! Each year this community steps up and shows us how much they care about their neighbors,” said EBP co-chair Carrie Gregory.
